In a positive review in New Musical Express, Mick Duffy described Caught In Flux as a progress from Eyeless in Gaza's debut album: "‘Caught In Flux’ is most specifically an introspective LP, a thoughtful compilation of new songs and sound patterns, skilfully patched together and performed, It's a meditative music for active minds, an exciting vision of a brave new whirl."[3]
